== Opt Out? Seriously ==
The UCoC has a role as an optional fallback for those projects which don't have their own standards. Attempting to impose it on large, established communities such as English Wikipedia against consensus is just another power grab which will drive away editors. [[User:Certes|Certes]] ([[User talk:Certes|talk]]) 10:26, 11 September 2022 (UTC)


Agree, UCoC should not apply on enwik, as enwiki can handle itself. [[User:Rockstone35|Rockstone35]] ([[User talk:Rockstone35|talk]]) 10:54, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
Any website that forces you to opt-out of unsolicited e-mails can go screw itself. What is this, 2001? Change this process immediately and stop bothering people who DO NOT CARE. This account is retired anyway. [[User:Shadow2|Shadow2]] ([[User talk:Shadow2|talk]]) 00:22, 24 January 2023 (UTC)


== Voting results are in ==
:100%, allow large wikis a ratification vote. This should be in each wiki's usual format (on en-wiki and I suspect on most others that means a community initiated, written, and closed RFC). If they ratify it, cool, we dotted is and crossed ts. If they don't, we dodge a minefield where communities are asked to abide by/enforce standards that don't have consensus.

:Note that UCoC itself is already approved as a global policy (see [[:foundation:Universal Code of Conduct]]), and it technically already applies at all Wikimedia wikis. The discussion here is about the enforcement guidelines, rather than UCoC itself. [[User:Martin Urbanec|Martin Urbanec]] ([[User talk:Martin Urbanec|talk]]) 17:50, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

There is nothing directly specifying UCoC violations by WMF staff & contractors, BOT, Working Groups or Committees. While its highly unlikely that people in some of the roles would cause an issue, its only fair that there be some recourse mentioned in this section for those areas. Aka Affcom oversees affiliates but who oversees Affcom, what if the Language committee denies a language because of racism, or a funding committee denies a community/individual without cause or places impractical conditions on a grant forcing it to be withdrawn/denied ? The current layout appears to create a set of untouchables in the movement. [[User:Gnangarra|Gnangarra]] ([[User talk:Gnangarra|talk]]) 12:27, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

As the link points to the '''definition on''' Meta, not Meta('s main page?) itself, the linked text should be "definition" or "definition on Meta". The current linking style is discouraged by dewiki and enwiki ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Piped_link#Transparency], [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verlinken#Gut_zielen]).

From point '''3.1.2 Enforcement by type of violations''' the text has not been translated in Dutch. I'm willing to give a hand, but the legal American english terms are too complicated to translate on my own. Also because I can't find the basic explanations of the drafting committee. So there's a need for support from some other people, with a more than moderate understanding of the english language and Dutch and American legal terms. Thanks!

Help needed

From point 3.1.2 Enforcement by type of violations the text has not been translated in Dutch. I'm willing to give a hand, but the legal American english terms are too complicated to translate on my own. Also because I can't find the basic explanations of the drafting committee. So there's a need for support from some other people, with a more than moderate understanding of the english language and Dutch and American legal terms. Thanks!
